DTD aka BD aka SEX

DTD
BD

STOP IT

It is sex. Having sex. Screwing, fucking, shagging, making lurve. Sex has three letters, one more than BD, and the same as DTD. Although you have to stick your finher on the shift key for DTD and BD making them more labour intensive than writing sex.

Please, please stop it. If you are old enough to have sex, you are old enough to type the word on an anonymous internet forum. I appreciate that TTCers have their own language which is fine but on the main boards, it offends me, and hurts my eyes. Please stop.

YADNBU, BD in particular makes me want to hurl. I have spent a while on the TTC boards (what brought me here) and actually I dont see it used that much in there. SFF and SWI are fair enough as we are naturally a wee bit obsessed with the difference but mostly we say sechs (to avoid work filters) where I hang out.

BABY DANCING???? Thats a sickly horrid phrase. I am damn sure me and dh weren't dancing when we conceived dd Grin

DaffadownDilly · 19/02/2011 21:31

It reminds me of that "special cuddle" shite from children's sex books.

fit2drop · 19/02/2011 21:46

Excuse me, but, what is this sex of which you speak ?

Asteria · 19/02/2011 21:47

Did someone say bondage? Splendid....! Grin

Is baby dust freeze dried semen or something?

BitOfFun · 19/02/2011 21:52

Odd, innit? And 'world wide web' is quicker to say than 'doubleyew doubleyew doubleyew' too.

DaffadownDilly · 19/02/2011 21:52

Ewww at sprinkling freeze dried semen over people.

Galdem · 19/02/2011 21:52

Even when I was ttc I had to stay off the vast majority of the conception threads because I didn't want to talk about DTD or baby dancing or want anyone to wish me a fertilised egg that would 'stick' or sprinkle baby dust anywhere near me

They have a thread for Silk Cut smoking shaggers nowadays, which would have been much more up my street Grin

rocketleaf · 19/02/2011 21:54

Freeze dried FFJ i think Astoria. :o (god damn TTC acronyms again)

rocketleaf · 19/02/2011 21:56

sorry AstEria.

Asteria · 19/02/2011 22:02

Tisk Rocket - you make me sound like a ruddy Hotel!

As an aside - would the freeze dried stuff still make your hair as shiny as the free flowing ? I only ask because my ex told me of it's medicinal properties and I would much rather sprinkle it on my weetabix than tackle the stuff at source.... Grin

rocketleaf · 19/02/2011 22:12

It might work like dry shampoo I suppose?

btw I was thinking of the wonderful and sadly no longer existing venue where I popped my music gig cherry all those years ago as opposed to a hotel chain.

ginmakesitallok · 19/02/2011 22:17

I haven't read all the posts so apologies - and I've had a couple of glasses of wine which doesn't help. I don't like the term BD either - because DP and I have never been in this position, we've just had sex and have been lucky enought to have 2DDs as a result when we've wanted them. If we'd been purposedly trying to have a baby and been having sex for that purpose then I too may have been persuaded to use the term BD. Loosen up.

Newgolddream · 19/02/2011 22:20

This thread has made me laugh! I came here for the ttc board, fresh from a forum full of bding, baby dust and huns.....and I must say I much prefer the swi here..shaggin with intent?...dont think theres much bding going on here lol

RevoltingPeasant · 19/02/2011 22:20

Asteria, what are you doing that you get semen in your hair?

Or this is some sort of lush bush treatment?

Confused
Asteria · 19/02/2011 22:36

"I'm so sorry officer - it just went off in my hands" Blush

RevoltingPeasant - didn't you know it makes a splendid hair mask...? I'm really not sure that I would want to use it as dry shampoo - will just stick to my batiste thanks! My ex was deeply serious when he told me that swallowing it would make my hair really shiny... Bless him, some men will try anything for a blow job!

Shagging with intent indeed! Is that what they call it in a court of law? Grin

Yanbu. It's rediculously twee

leafyskyline · 02/10/2019 22:07

@EricNorthmansMistress I had a friend who used the term BabyDancing in real life. To my face Confused

Needless to say we have very different parenting styles.

youngfarmer · 02/10/2019 22:18

So what's the preferred description; screwing, shagging, bonking, fucking, making love?

Solasshole · 02/10/2019 22:26

Huh. It irrationally irritates me when people use the word "think" in daft ways on this forum. Specifically when they say something like "my DH has a hobby (think golf, cycling)". It just sounds soooo wrong in my head, the word think in that sentence. I wish people would stop doing it.

I dont even know why it annoys me so much! Confused

Vulpine · 02/10/2019 22:37

Dtd is far quicker to type than 'having sex' which has 6 more letters.
